M42 and comet

[beren]

Ahh yes the perennial one , M42, my attempt..... plus Comet Lovejoy {dreadful framing "rule of the thirds" ignored }. 10x5mins for both through a sx m25c and 90mm refractor. Cheers for looking and merry Xmas to all

[Placidus (Mike and Trish)]

Nice use of 90mm refractor on both counts. Well done with the comet.

Good ones Beren - thats a very wide 'Orion' field for a 90mm refractor - is it a few panels mosaic ?
Thanx . .
